The sad news is Art Lande isn't performing anywhere in Boulder until after we're gone. (He's the composer / pianist / avant-garde improviser who wrote the wedding march Matt played at our wedding). Not that I should be out galavanting around while I'm here...
Had to be stern with mom this morning. "I don't think you should be having ___ and ___ over to dinner tomorrow night. No social obligations or work obligations until your energy level is back to normal & abdominal swelling completely gone." (____ was completely uncomfortable when she & her husband were invited to come to dinner Sunday. She's the one who fielded all the phone calls & visitors from 12:30-2:00 every day when mom was at the hospital, allowing mom her sole 1-1/2 hours of uninterrupted sleep. I know she won't be the least offended when the invitation is revoked...)
The fun news from Chand & Jeff is that Chand got a job! As Jeff told the story, Chand was sitting on a park bench across from the Courthouse Square, and a lady sat down next to him. They started chatting. In the course of the conversation Chand mentioned that he was unemployed & wanted to find a job. The lady said, "You've got one, and it starts right now if you want!" She was the owner of the restaurant they were sitting in front of, The Lone Spur Cafe. It's a pretty new restaurant that these people bought & redecorated about a year or so ago. They serve breakfast and lunch, and are closed by 2:30. He'll be working in the kitchen 3 days/week. That will be a perfect schedule to complement the Tuesday-Thursday classes he's got lined up at Yavapai College for the fall.
The other wonderful Chand news is that he's finished all of his driver training, and ended with fine compliments on how he drives, from the instructor. Now he has the waiver he needs to go get his drivers' license. Driving, working & college classes will be welcome changes for Chand, I'm sure, and I think he'll enjoy the upcoming year!
Well, that's today's news & I'm sure I love whoever's reading it!
